Re: GEAR BOX QUERY-HOW MUCH?WHERE?WORTH IT?

well for a start if your replacing the gearbox it would be silly not to do the clutch while its off :? for a good working gearbox i would say between £80-£175 8) cost of fitting around £80-£100 http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/PEUGEOT-406-X-REG-2-0L-HDI-GEARBOX-79K-MILES-PIC-/120688032471?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehi...

Re: 2003 406 hdi(110) estate flat battery everyday help nee

Simplest way to find out if it's the battery is to take the terminal off when you park it up, then re connect it in the morning. If it starts battery OK ,If not battery faulty. If the battery is OK the next suspect is an alternator fault. Try the same technique for that i.e disconect the alternator ...

Re: Ticking noise
